Rubab Bint Imra Al-Qais
Rubāb bint Imraʾ al-Qays ( ar, رُبَاب بِنْت ٱمْرِئ ٱلْقَيْس), or Umm Rubāb ( ar, أُمّ رُبَاب) was a wife of Husayn ibn Ali. She was a daughter of Imra al-Qais, a chief of Banu Kalb, who came to Medina when Umar was Caliph. Ali proposed this marriage, but since Husayn and Qais's daughter were too young at the time, the actual marriage took place later. Husayn had a daughter, Ruqayya, and a son, Abd Allah, (or according to recent Shia sources, Ali al-Asghar) from her. Husayn's , Abu Abd Allah, is probably refers to this son. As a result of their deep affection, Husayn, composed poetry about her. After Husayn's death she spent a year in grief at his grave and refused to remarry.

Umar
ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb ( ar, عمر بن الخطاب, also spelled Omar, ) was the second Rashidun caliph, ruling from August 634 until his assassination in 644.
